[Following is a volunteer review of "Killing Abel" by Michael Tieman.]
Killing Abel is a historical fiction book by Michael Tieman. It portrays some of the major happenings in the Bible. It started with the story of Adam and Eve in the garden. They were tempted by the serpent to eat the fruit of knowledge, thus after, they became aware of themselves.The story continued until they got married and formed a family. Eve giving birth to Cain after the twelve daughters by the wisdom of God. It followed with the birth of Abel conceived by faith. Eva is the first born child, and supposedly married to the first born son but she didn't like Cain's character, and turned her attention to Abel. Abel is a man of discipline while Cain is the opposite. Cain is obsessed with the tree of knowledge in the garden while Abel is not. One day Cain convinced Abel to joined him to find the tree of knowledge. It happened they have a big misunderstanding, and ended up killing Abel. Eva grieve on it as a wife, and seek for revenge but when she search and find Cain, they ended up marrying with each other. Why it is happened? Read this book to find out.
The stories in the book are thrilling. But one thing that caused me to intrigued is about Cain's mark. Why God protected him after all he had done to Abel? What is the mark's contribution to Cain's life? What is Eva's life in living together with Cain? All this questions will be answered by reading this book.
The plot is in chronological order. Michael Tieman managed to tell the stories interestingly until the end of the book. I like how it is written because the author used simple words which is easy to comprehend by the average readers. He adds up interesting stories about Noah's original story in the bible. As a reader, he made me excite to read in the following chapters. The stories are captivating that no reason to lose interest to it. I enjoyed reading this book with easy to understand stories with a little twist. Quite honestly, this is my first time to read historical book and I'm glad I found this book. It piqued my interest, and will pick up the same genre next time.
There's nothing I dislike about the book. All the stories presented made my mind wander. It increased my imagination to a higher level with the following stories from the Bible. I appreciate the author in the last page of the book for his thoughtful words for God for writing the book. As a reader of the book, I would say Michael Tieman successfully turned me to level up my imagination and excitement towards the event being said in this book.
Aside from that, the book is exceptionally edited. I don't encounter any grammatical and typographical errors, thus it was an enjoyable smooth-read. Therefore, Killing Abel deserved 4 out of 4 stars.
As a result, I would like to recommend this book to lovers of Bible stories. It is for sure click with Christian readers because it tackles the stories of some important people in the Bible. But I would say it's not suitable for non-religious people because the content always portray the power and wisdom of God. This book is a good read to fiction book lovers as well. Indeed, it was worthwhile to read.
